Clear and Sane: The Craft of The Green Paintbrush

By: Barker, Joel Byron

We all wake up in the world and decide what to do next.

We all wake up with our minds whirring beauty vacuums and brains ready to build.

We do it every day.

Clear and Sane is a novel about four people waking up in an altered version of the early 21st century than you and I wake up in.

Mary, a musician and songwriter.

Reginald and Cherry, who design how people use technology,

And the curious character Cardio Plathemy that mentors them.

Speed limits have been strictly enforced for decades. For this subtle variation, the waves and tides of American society are different than what you and I experience.

But people still wake up to vacuum beauty and build things.

These four characters and other souls, keep waking up and doing what they can to live as close to completely as they can while ATMs and albums and autonomous cars need to be made, insurance companies need to beat out competitors, and desire needs to be addressed.
